I’m shocked by the lack of awareness, by pilots , of the cargo / freight / logistics / forwarding industry here on this forum. Those that want to join should spend at least some of their time educating themselves on the details , particulars and dynamics of this industry. “ ... do you fly more at night or in the day ? “ .... I can’t believe the utter ignorance and stupidity of some people - no wonder people get TBNT emails !

Yeah, childish comments like this don’t help your cause. Move along.

Greetings

Are your 737s flying DHL or Amazon?

Is it more day or night flying?

What would be a typical day for a 737 driver?

Thanks in advance

From what I see the 737s fly Amazon which is a mix of day and night flying. I'm on the 767, so don't take my word for it. One of the 737 pilots might be able to provide better information.

Thank you for a straight up professional answer.

That is difficult to come across here at times.

In March 2019, we amended the agreements entered into in 2016 with Amazon, pursuant to which we began providing CMI services using Boeing 737-800 freighter aircraft provided by Amazon. The 737-800 CMI operations are for a term of seven years from the commencement of each agreement (with an option for Amazon to extend the term to ten years). As of June 30, 2020, five 737-800 freighter aircraft entered CMI service. Amazon may, in its sole discretion, place up to 15 additional 737-800 freighter aircraft into service with us by May 31, 2021.

Thank you much for the useful information.

HAHA okay I’ll bite. Atlas is a 25 hour a day operation. We don’t cancel flights. Show up at 10pm to fly all night and are delayed 3 hours- guess what. You leave at 1am and fly all night. WE GO ALL THE TIME. Nobody cares - move the jet day or night. Deal with it.
